Well, what ARE you using for your remote access equipment?

The Session-Timeout value is passed back to the piece of
equipment that is receiving the incoming calls. If _IT_
does not understand Session-Timeout then you are stiff
out of luck.

At no point does the RADIUS daemon actually 'disconnect'
the user, It simply tells the NAS that when this person
connects they should be disconnected at the end of the
Session-Timeout value.
